Evidence for a Direct Effect of the NAD(+) Precursor Acipimox on Muscle Mitochondrial Function in Humans

TL;DR: This study is the first to demonstrate that NAD+ boosters can also directly affect skeletal muscle mitochondrial function in humans and shows that acipimox treatment resulted in a robust elevation in expression of nuclear-encoded mitochondrial gene sets and a mitonuclear protein imbalance, which may indicate activation of the mitochondrial unfolded protein response.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impact of aging and exercise on skeletal muscle mitochondrial capacity, energy metabolism, and physical function

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined to what extent physical activity contributes to the decline in mitochondrial function and muscle health during aging and compared mitochondrial function in young and older adults, with similar habitual physical activity levels.
Journal ArticleDOI

Exercise-induced modulation of cardiac lipid content in healthy lean young men

TL;DR: Elevated plasma FA concentrations, induced by exercise in the fasted state, lead to increased cardiac lipid content, but do not acutely hamper systolic function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of Bezafibrate Treatment in a Patient and a Carrier With Mutations in the PNPLA2 Gene, Causing Neutral Lipid Storage Disease With Myopathy

TL;DR: Whether PPAR agonist treatment in patients and carriers of a PNPLA2 gene defect could also have beneficial effects is investigated, suggesting that lipolysis-derived fatty acids or fatty acid byproducts serve as transcriptional activators of PPARs.
